Not so G00d:
If your anders, you would want to counter tanks with gremlins/hogs/spartans. Not hornets. You can get them out much earlier, and qith emp you can hijack tanks very easily.

If your forge, you can either out tank him, or do the tank rush with hornets instead of tanks. 5xsp, 2xreacter, when your getting close to 1000 sup, sell a sp, make a ap, upgrade a reacter, queue up wingman, sell a reacter make a second ap, then pump out hornets.

That is the fastest canister tank rush, and works just aswell with wingman hornets. If you get rushe your boned, but if you know he is going tanks you dont have to worry about that.

Hornets without wingmen suck.

Donated:Upgraded reactor and 2 air pads is the way to go. You can queue up hornets constantly with no break.

Cost to pump 2x airpads nonstop: 500 res/20 sec = 25 res/sec

Res/sec from four heavy pads: ~17.5 res/sec

Not quite.

go with 2 sp and 2 reacter and then ap. the you can add the sp pad latter. you get hornets in faster and since they are cheap you don't need to upgrade your sp.

ok so i was cutter playing against forge and at like 1 minute in the game i saw he was going to do a tank rush so i decided to make hornets but when he hit me with 4 tanks i only had 2 hornets but i had like 4 quede my build order was..

suply pad x4

reactor x2

air pad

upgraded all sps

started hornets

should i have not upgraded the sps or used a different leader instead of cutter also like i said in the title should i have made 1 upgraded reactor and then went for 2 air pads
